The Original Vampire

  In Winter City, the city gate is closed.

  Outside the city, the Golden Lions were lined up and waiting in good order.

  In front of the array, Colin listened to the messenger’s report, his face uncertain.

  ”Lord Viscount, Miss Vera, there are reports in the city that due to the current unstable situation and rebels everywhere, in order to ensure the safety of Winter City, the city gate cannot be opened to allow the Golden Lion Army to enter for the time being.

  However, Master Joyce said, You and your wife can enter the city, and you must not bring more than a hundred guards with you.”

  ”Hahaha, what a big joke! When did the Golden Lion Army not be able to enter the Winter City!”

  The envoy lowered his head for a moment after listening to Colin’s sarcasm. No words.

  Colin didn’t make things difficult for him. He was just a messenger. The situation in the city was obviously controlled by Earl Uman.

  Along the way, they also discovered the marching traces left by the army. At that time, Colin guessed that these were the troops of the Uman family, but he did not expect that they would control Winter City so easily.

  There must be someone in the city cooperating with him!

  ”Who is the commander of the city defense army in Winter City?” Colin asked, looking at Bachelor Daun next to him.

  ”It’s Knight Thomas St. Hilde.” Bachelor Dawn seemed to see what Colin was thinking. After announcing a name, he immediately shook his head and said, “Knight Thomas should have no bias. Count Uman can control the winter so quickly. The city must have received help from others.”

  ”Who else can help him?”

  Bachelor Daun thought for a while and said, “It should be the steward of the St. Hilde family – Drinden.”

  ”Steward? “Colin frowned, thinking of the old-fashioned, unsmiling housekeeper he had seen at Vera’s coming-of-age ceremony, “Why would he prefer Joyce? Did Duke St. Hilde give him a gift before he left? What was his order?”

  Bachelor Daun shook his head: “I don’t know whether the Duke told him anything. However, the reason why I guessed that he helped Count Uman is because I know that he is a fanatical Cultist.”

  ”Cultist?” Colin reacted instantly.

  Even though Vera had received adult rites in the church, she had not been baptized after all, nor had she publicly acknowledged her belief in the Lord of Radiance.

  Therefore, in the eyes of housekeeper Derinden, she is still a blasphemous mage and a heretic!

  At this time, Colin realized that he had not considered the church’s attitude all along.

  However, this cannot be blamed for his lack of consideration, nor is it that Bachelor Dawn deliberately failed to mention it, but that the church has no say in the appointment of the Duke of the North.

  An emperor needs a papal coronation, but a duke does not.

  The royal family will never allow the church to influence the appointment and dismissal of its vassals.

  But obviously, the church will not really stand idly by, especially when such an important title as the Duke of the North is about to be inherited by a mage.

  ”Do you have any good ideas now?” Colin asked Bachelor Dawn.

  The current situation makes Colin feel very tricky. A strong city like Winter City cannot be captured in a short time. At this time, the Maynum family is estimated to have joined forces with the Dawson family. The dwarf coalition will soon follow. Will chase after you.

  If the Uman family in Winter City is not dealt with quickly, the Golden Lion Army will be in danger of being attacked from both sides.

  Bachelor Daun hesitated for a moment, but still looked at Colin’s eyes seriously, and said solemnly: “Miss Vera can’t enter the city!”

  Colin was stunned, thinking that Bachelor Dao En said nonsense.

  At this time, Winter City is under the control of Earl Uman, and Vera will only seek her own death if she enters the city.

  But he immediately realized that the messenger opposite had invited him and Vera, but Bachelor Daun only said that Vera could not enter the city alone.

  So…

  ”Are you suggesting that I enter the city?”

  ”Yes.” Bachelor Dao En nodded and added, “If you allow me, I will accompany you to the city.”

  The latter sentence was a statement, and he wanted to tell Ke Lin’s suggestion had no ulterior motives.

  In fact, Colin was not worried that Bachelor Dawn would deliberately frame him. It had reached this point. Even if Bachelor Dawn sold Colin, he would not be able to win Joyce’s true trust. The power there would probably be gone now. The division has been completed.

  Moreover, with Vera and the Golden Lions outside the city, Joyce would not do anything to Colin as long as she still had some sense.

  ”What about after entering the city?” Colin asked.

  Bachelor Daun immediately said: “Form an alliance!”

  ”Form an alliance?”

  ”Yes. If Joyce wants to sit on the throne of the Duke of the North, his first enemy is actually the St. Xion family. Under the current situation, we can borrow Let’s unite with each other to deal with the incoming dwarf army first, and then make other plans.”

  Colin rubbed his chin and thought for a long time before finally nodding and saying: “Okay, I’ll go into the city with you!”

  After that, he turned back and went to the city. A carriage came from behind.

  Before entering the city, of course, Vera must be appeased first.

  Entering the carriage, Colin told Vera his and Maester Dawn’s plans.

  Originally, he thought that Vera would definitely object, and had already prepared some words in advance, but unexpectedly, this time, although Vera’s face was full of worry and reluctance, she did not reject Colin’s proposal.

  ”Okay, then you go. If something happens to you in the city, even if it destroys this Winter City, even if the Saint Hilde family loses the North, I will avenge you!”

  After experiencing so many things, the once innocent girl has gradually matured.

  Colin smiled calmly: “Don’t worry, there is a big enemy like Saint Xion outside now. If the people in the city are not stupid, they will not completely anger us at this time.”

  Vera nodded lightly and helped Colin straighten his shirt. collar, and said emotionally: “Kelin, you have sacrificed so much for the North, how should I thank you?”

  You becoming the Duke of the North is the best thank you!

  Of course, Colin would not directly say what was in his heart, as that would be too embarrassing.

  Looking at Vera’s watery eyes, Colin chuckled, hugged her into his arms, and said warmly: “You can marry me, which is the best thank you to me!” The answer is correct!

  Vera smiled sweetly, stood on tiptoes, and gave a sweet kiss to the man she loved.

  After some tenderness, Colin left the car.

  Afterward, he found Knight Cambenin and ordered:

  ”Stay outside the city and pay attention to the movements of the dwarf army. If the enemy approaches, just hold your position and don’t accept the challenge easily.

  In addition, after I enter the city, I will send people out to deliver messages every day. , if we don’t receive the report, it means that we have an accident inside. What to do then, you will follow Vera’s orders.”

  “Yes, Lord Viscount!”

  After explaining to Knight Cambellin, Colin said to Mage Cusius, who was in a daze, asked,

  ”Mr. Cusius, have you been to Winter City before?”

  ”Yes.” Cusius nodded, then shook his head, “But I have never been to Lion’s Roar.” Fort.”

  Colin laughed and invited: “Now there is a good opportunity, would you like to accompany me?”

  Master Kusius rolled his eyes, obviously hesitating, but finally nodded: ” It’s my honor!”

  Colin didn’t want to leave this hard-to-distinguish mage outside the city, in case he caused some trouble around Vera, so it was better to take him into the city with him.

  Finally, Colin said a few more words to Knight Logue, then led a hundred personal guards and walked toward Winter City.

  Amidst the dull roar, the huge steel city gate slowly opened a small gap for only one person to pass.

  Colin shook his head with a smile, the other party was really cautious.

  After gathering his mood, he immediately strode forward and walked into the city first.

  After entering the city, Colin first saw Count Uman standing in front.

  After not seeing each other for a year, the Earl of Uman looks much older, but his waist is still straight and his eyes are still sharp, like a fighter who is never willing to bow his head and admit defeat.

  ”Viscount Angelet, welcome to Winter City!”

  ”Count Uman, long time no see!” Colin smiled and stepped forward to shake hands cordially with the other party as if he was reunited with an old friend he hadn’t seen for many years.

  ”By the way, why don’t you see Miss Vera?” Uman looked behind Colin and asked pretendingly.

  ”She is ill and can’t come. I’m sorry.” Colin made up a reason casually, and then changed the subject and said, “Your Majesty, I have a meeting gift for you.” “

  Oh?” Earl Uman looked at him with a look. Shen, “You are so polite.”

  Colin smiled and waved behind him, and an accompanying guard walked up and took off his helmet.

  When Count Uman saw the other party’s face clearly, he was instantly shocked and his tone was trembling: “Wa… Varla?”

  ”Father.” Varla raised his head, letting half of his face be burned beyond recognition by the fire. Thoroughly exposed to sunlight.

  Looking at this twisted face, Earl Uman couldn’t help but tremble all over. The hatred in his eyes seemed to make the surrounding temperature drop by more than ten degrees.

  He slowly stepped forward, held his “illegitimate son” in his arms, and said in a deep voice: “Don’t worry, I will definitely take your revenge, the hatred of the Wuman family, and the hatred of the 300,000 people of Falling Eagle City.” Report!”

  Colin looked at the warm scene of father and son reunion in front of him with a smile, and said jokingly: “Count Uman, are you satisfied with this meeting gift?”

  Then Count Uman let go of Varla looked back at Ke Lin and said solemnly: “Viscount Angelet, I will definitely repay your kindness in the future!”

  Colin laughed, waved his hands, and said: “I’m just kidding you, I’m the one Valla Knight says.” My brother-in-law, it is my unshirkable responsibility to save him.

  However, I also deeply regret the tragedy that happened in Fallen Eagle City. The St. Xion family’s actions are really outraged by both humans and gods, and they will be punished by heaven and earth!

  For such a dehumanizing devil, we should unite, work together to drive them out of the north!”

  Earl Uman nodded, seeming to agree with Colin’s opinion, but he did not make any verbal statement, but made an invitation gesture:

  ”Viscount Angelet, please, Master Joyce has been waiting for a long time.”

  ”Okay.”

  Colin strode forward, and the steel city gate behind him slowly closed, dividing the inside and outside of the city into two worlds.
